your wall-mounted SMART Board interactive whiteboard
system.
• Do not climb on, hang from or suspend objects from the
Unifi 45 projector’s arm.
• To attach the wall tether, use the appropriate hardware
for your wall type. Failure to do so could result in injury if
the unit detaches from the wall.
• Climbing on the interactive whiteboard or projector arm
could result in personal injury or product damage.
• Do not attempt to service the projector other than
performing routine lamp replacement and cleaning the
mirror. Service should be performed only by an
authorized service provider. Other than the lamp module, there are no user serviceable parts
inside the unit.
• Do not remove any screws other than those specified in the lamp replacement instructions.
• Do not stare into the beam of light created by the projector. Instruct children not to look in the
direction of, or stare at, this beam of light. Encourage users to keep their back to the
projector when working at the interactive whiteboard. Before they turn to face the audience,
users should step sideways, out of the projector’s beam.
• Tell users not to touch the head or lens of the projector, as it can become extremely hot
during normal operation.

ii Important Information 99-00850-21 B0

 WARNING • If the projector is mounted on the arm, the manufacturer recommends contacting your
authorized SMART reseller when the lamp must be exchanged.
• Only qualified personnel should replace the projector lamp. Replacing the lamp in a
arm-mounted projector might result in a fall and injury.
• If you continue to use the projector after the replacement message appears, the lamp might
shatter or burst, scattering glass throughout the projector head.
• If the lamp has shattered or burst, do not touch the glass fragments because they might
cause injury. Leave and then ventilate the area where the lamp shattered or burst. Wash
your hands thoroughly if you have come into contact with lamp debris. Thoroughly clean the
area around the projector, and discard any edible items placed in that area because they
might be contaminated.
• If the lamp has shattered or burst, call a SMART authorized service representative for
instructions. Do not attempt to replace the lamp.
• Remove the projector from the arm before servicing the lamp.
• Complete the procedure described in this document before following the instructions
included in your replacement lamp box.
• Uncovering the lamp while the projector is mounted on an arm might lead to product damage
or personal injury from falling pieces of glass if the lamp is broken.
• Turn the projector off and wait 15 minutes for the lamp to cool completely before removing
the old lamp assembly.
• Wear protective eyewear while changing the lamp. Failure to do so can cause injury or loss
of eyesight if the lamp shatters or bursts.
• The lamp used in the Unifi 45 projector contains mercury. Recycle or dispose of it as
hazardous waste, in accordance with local regulations.
• To prevent premature lamp failure or exposure to mercury, always handle the fragile lamp
assembly with care. Use gloves when touching the lamp. Do not touch the lamp with your
fingers.
• Use only the SB20 replacement lamp (SMART Part No. 01-00247).
• Never replace the lamp assembly with a previously used lamp assembly.
• When mounting the projector on a framed wall, you must attach both the mounting bracket
and safety tether to a stud to safely support the projector’s weight. If you only use drywall
anchors, the drywall can fail, resulting in product damage and possible personal injury.
• If the two screws supporting the safety tether are removed, the projector boom will be free to
swing. Make sure that these two screws are tightened and never remove them from the unit
without supporting the projector arm first.
• Two people are required to mount the projector and the interactive whiteboard on a wall
because they might be too heavy for one person to maneuver onto their wall-mounting
brackets.
• Cleaning a arm-mounted projector may result in a fall and injury.

99-00850-21 B0 Important Information iii

 CAUTION • Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location.
When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may condense on the
lens and crucial internal parts. Allow the system to stabilize to room temperature before
operation to prevent the unit from possible damage.
• In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use the projector
with fan mode set to High.
• Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause a
malfunction and shorten the life of the projector.
• Before you clean the Unifi 45 projector, turn off the power button switch on the projector, not
the ECP, and allow bulb to cool. Depressing the ECP button at this time would cause the
projector to start back up.
• Do not allow liquids or commercial solvents of any kind to flow into the projector base or
head. Do not use spray cleaners or solvents near any part of the projector, as it may damage
or stain the unit.
• Cycling power to the projector repeatedly can lock or damage the interactive whiteboard
system. Allow at least 15 minutes for cooling before sending the ON command after turning
off the system.
• After you turn the system off, wait until the system cools completely before turning the
system on again. Avoid cycling the system off and on.
• Do not connect your serial cable directly to the projector’s RS-232 serial interface. The
extended control panel’s (ECP’s) RS-232 serial interface is the only recommended
connection point.

IMPORTANT • Using the Unifi 45 projector system near a TV or radio may cause interference to the images
or audio sound. If this happens, move the TV or radio away from the projector.
• Securing the pen tray can provide theft deterrence for the interactive whiteboard as well.
The screws that secure the interactive whiteboard to the wall are located directly behind the
pen tray. The pen tray must be removed before you can remove the interactive whiteboard.
When you secure the pen tray, you also secure the interactive whiteboard.
• Install your host computer’s video output directly to your Unifi 45 projector and not to
the ECP. The VGA connector on the ECP is then available for a guest computer connection,
such as a laptop. If you will not have guest computers, you can use the VGA connector on
the ECP instead.
• Only use the input marked “Computer 2” on your projector to connect the ECP
harness cable.
• The 600i2 interactive whiteboard system does not have speakers. Consult your authorized
SMART reseller to determine your audio output options.
• If you have peripheral devices that do not use a 4-pin mini-DIN connectors or an RCA
composite video jack, or if your device has an audio connection that does not use RCA
jacks, you might need to purchase third-party adapters.
• After you resolve your projector’s issue, you must turn your projector’s main power switch off
and on again to clear the indicator light sequence and reset your projector’s status.

improvements to make the SMART Board 600i2 interactive
whiteboard system easier to install, use, service and upgrade.

When the Unifi 45 projector displays an image from a computer

onto the touch-sensitive interactive whiteboard, you can draw over
the image in digital ink using a pen tray pen or your finger. This
projector also supports video and audio connections from a variety
of devices, including DVD players, VCRs, document cameras and
digital cameras, and can project media from these sources onto the
interactive screen.

When you use the system with a computer, you can do everything
you can do at a computer workstation—open files, conference with
others, work on documents, visit websites, play video clips and
more—simply by touching the screen.

When you use SMART Notebook software with your 600i2 interactive whiteboard system, you can write over any
Ink Aware application in digital ink using a pen tray pen or your finger and then save these notes to a Notebook
file for future reference and distribution.

99-00850-21 B0 About Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 3

 Remote Control
The remote control provides an alternative way to control the system and to set
up your Unifi 45 projector. Use the remote control to access menu options,
system information and input selection options.

Pen Tray Tools

The pen tray tools include four pens and an eraser. The pens have a rubberized
grip area, colored to match the four colors of digital ink: black, green, red and
blue. You can use dry-erase markers instead of the supplied pens, as long as
they are a similar shape, do not scratch or mark the surface of the interactive
whiteboard and reflect infrared light. If the pens you provide don’t reflect infrared
light, the pen tray sensor might not detect the presence of the pen. EXPO®
markers make excellent substitutes.

NOTE: Pens from earlier interactive whiteboards weren’t designed to reflect

infrared light, so the sensors may not detect them reliably. You can wrap
light-colored tape around the pen to improve the reflection of infrared light and to
help with tool detection.

Eraser

The eraser resembles a rectangular chalkboard eraser. You can use a substitute
eraser, provided it has a similar shape, does not scratch or mark the surface of the interactive whiteboard and
reflects infrared light.

Optional Accessories
For more information on optional accessories, contact your authorized SMART reseller.

Height Adjustable Wall Mount (HAWM-600i2)

Your interactive whiteboard system installed on a HAWM-600i2 can be lowered to young students’ reaching

wall mount locks at its highest point.

Mobile Floor Stand (FS600i2)

You can use the floor stand with your interactive whiteboard system for travelling or mobile presentations.
Assemble the mobile stand free-standing or tethered to the wall. To move the floor stand, partially disassemble
the unit, install the casters and roll it to a different location.

USB Speakers (SBA)

Your interactive whiteboard system requires an audio system to deliver
presentations with sound. The audio system consists of a pair of 15-watt,
stereo-amplified speakers with a two-port USB hub and a volume control knob.
You need an RCA plug to 3.5 mm audio jack cable long enough for your
installation conditions (not included).

NOTE: SBA speakers are not directly compatible with the HAWM-600i2 and
should not be installed on the wall mount. SBA speakers must be installed
directly on the wall in a manner that does not interfere with the wall mount.

• Environmental Requirements
• Before Installing Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System
• After Installing Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System

Environmental Requirements
Before installing your SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard system, review the following
environmental requirements.

SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard systems can operate in a temperature range of 41°F to 95°F
(5°C to 35°C) from sea level to an altitude up to 6000' (0 m to 1829 m) and in a temperature range of 41°F to
86°F (5°C to 30°C) from 6000' to 9800' (1829 m to 2987 m). The product can withstand storage temperatures
from -40°F to 122°F (-40°C to 50°C).

CAUTION • Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location.
When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may condense on the
lens and crucial internal parts. Allow the system to stabilize to room temperature before
operation to prevent the unit from possible damage.
• In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use the projector
with fan mode set to High.
• Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause a
malfunction and shorten the life of the projector.

Humidity
SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard systems can operate between 30% and 70% humidity, non-
condensing. Humidity above 80% might cause slight wrinkling in the sheet of the SMART Board 600 series
interactive whiteboard. The wrinkles disappear once the humidity lowers.

Water and Fluid Resistance

SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard systems are for indoor use only and do not meet any
salt-spray or water ingress requirements. Do not pour or spray any liquids directly onto the interactive
whiteboard, the Unifi 45 projector or any of its sub-components. These liquids might get into areas where they
could damage sensitive electronic components. Refer to the chapter on maintenance (page 31) for detailed
instructions on cleaning your system’s components.

99-00850-21 B0 Before Installing Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 7

 Dust and Scratching
SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard systems are for use in office and classroom environments and are
not for industrial use, where heavy dust and pollutants can cause malfunctions or impaired operation. The
design is for pollution degree 1 (P1) as per EN61558-1, which is defined as “No pollution or only dry
non-conductive pollution.”

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard systems meet the requirements of EN61000-4-2 severity level 4 for
direct and indirect ESD. No malfunction or damage up to 8kV (both polarities) with a 330 ohm, 150 pF probe (air
discharge). Unmated connectors meet 4kV (both polarities) for direct (contact) discharge.

Cables
All SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard system cables should be shielded, to prevent potential accidents
and degrading video and audio quality.

Conducted and Radiated Emissions

The narrowband radiated electric field from SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard systems meets the limits
for Class A performance as defined in EN55022/CISPR 22.

IMPORTANT
Using the Unifi 45 projector system near a TV or radio may cause interference to the images or
audio sound. If this happens, move the TV or radio away from the projector.

Before Installing Your SMART Board 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System

Choose a location for your SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard system that’s far from a bright light
source, such as windows or overhead lighting. Bright light sources can cause distracting shadows on the
interactive whiteboard and can reduce the contrast of the projected image.

Locate a wall with a flat, regular surface and minimum clearance to accommodate your interactive whiteboard
system. Make sure that the Unifi 45 projector and the SMART Board interactive whiteboard are installed on the
same flat surface. For best presentation alignment, SMART recommends that you mount your interactive
whiteboard system in a location that is central to your audience’s viewing direction. For mobile installation or
adjustable installation options, contact your authorized SMART reseller. If the mounting surface is slightly
irregular or the interactive whiteboard system cannot be directly mounted on a stud, consult Mounting SMART
Board 600i2 Series Interactive Whiteboard Systems and Unifi 45 Projectors on a Back Board (document 119764)
on the SMART Technical Support website.

Recommended Heights for Mounting

SMART includes a mounting template with each of its 600i2 interactive whiteboard systems. If you lose this
template, contact your authorized SMART reseller. Using this template ensures that you:
– mount the Unifi 45 projector at a safe height for head-space clearance, while maintaining enough
space for airflow and installation access above the unit
– position the projector at the correct height above the 600 series interactive whiteboard to make sure
that the projected image aligns with the touch screen.

8 Before Installing Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 99-00850-21 B0

 Dimensions on the template recommend a distance from the floor that is suitable for adults of average height.
Although you should consider the general height of your user community when you choose a position for the
interactive whiteboard, consult your local regulations before mounting the unit.

WARNING • When mounting the projector on a framed wall, you must attach both the mounting bracket
and safety tether to a stud to safely support the projector’s weight. If you only use drywall
anchors, the drywall can fail, resulting in product damage and possible personal injury.
• If the two screws supporting the safety tether are removed, the projector boom will be free to

without supporting the projector boom first.

Preparing the Unifi 45 Projector Boom Height and Mirror for Alignment

To set the projector boom’s height

Before you adjust the projector’s alignment and focus, set the projector boom to the optimal starting height.
1. If the floor below the projector boom is level, measure the distance between the lowest point of the projector
boom and the floor.
2. Measure the distance between the top edge of the interactive whiteboard’s frame and the floor.
For the model 660 interactive whiteboard, the lowest point of the projector boom should be 3 5/8" (92 mm)
lower than the top edge of the top frame.
For the model 680 interactive whiteboard, the lowest point of the boom should be 2 3/4” (70 mm) lower than
the top edge of the top frame.

Adjusting Keystone Alignment
When you use standard projectors, keystone errors occur when the projected image isn’t parallel to
the screen.

From the projector mirror, the image path is From the projector mirror, the image path
shorter across the top. is shorter across the bottom.

The image appears wider at the bottom when the image path’s distance from the projector mirror to the top of the
screen is shorter than the distance to the bottom of the screen. The image appears wider at the top when the
image path’s distance from the projector mirror to the bottom of the screen is shorter than the distance to the top
of the screen. Vertical keystone errors can occur when you mount the Unifi 45 projector and the SMART Board
600 series interactive whiteboard on an uneven surface or a wall that has obstructions.

10 Before Installing Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 99-00850-21 B0

 Horizontal keystone errors can occur when you mount the Unifi 45 projector too far from the SMART Board 600
series interactive whiteboard’s vertical center, when you mount the projector and the interactive whiteboard on
an uneven surface, or if the board is slightly closer to the projector on one side than the other.

From the projector mirror, the image path From the projector mirror, the image path

The image appears taller on the left side when the distance from the projector mirror to the right of the screen
is shorter than the distance to the left of the screen. The image appears taller at the right side of the image when
the distance from the projector mirror to the left of the screen is shorter than the distance to the right of
the screen.

Position the center of the interactive whiteboard so that it aligns with the center of the projector, as illustrated
in the installation document. This eliminates many keystone errors. If your installation environment prevents you
from moving the interactive whiteboard, you can adjust the projector boom and the mirror for optimum image
alignment.

NOTES
• Before you adjust the image alignment, ensure that the interactive whiteboard’s pen tray isn’t secured to the
wall or a floor stand so that you can move the interactive whiteboard left or right to center the image.
• If you move the interactive whiteboard system to a new location, you must re-align it.
• If your projector requires service, you must adjust the replacement projector.

WARNING
Two people are required to safely lift the interactive whiteboard on or off of its wall mount
bracket.

Securing the Pen Tray and Interactive Whiteboard

Because the pen tray that comes with your SMART Board interactive whiteboard is detachable, you may want to
safeguard it—and the interactive whiteboard at the same time—by anchoring it with a security cable
(not included).

IMPORTANT Securing the pen tray can provide theft deterrence for the interactive whiteboard as well.
The screws that secure the interactive whiteboard to the wall are located directly behind the pen
tray. The pen tray must be removed before you can remove the interactive whiteboard. When
you secure the pen tray, you also secure the interactive whiteboard.

18 Before Installing Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 99-00850-21 B0

 To lock the pen tray to the interactive whiteboard
Underneath the pen tray, there is a Kensington® security slot that accommodates a security cable, such as a
Kensington® lock.

Security Slot

Loop the security cable behind the pen tray brackets before you screw them to the wall, and then thread the lock
end of the cable through the loop end of the cable. Verify that the cable is tight enough to prevent you from
removing the pen tray while the lock is in place. Install the pen tray. Insert the prong end of the security cable into
the security slot, and then complete the pen tray installation.

To secure the pen tray to the pen tray brackets

Because you can remove the pen tray without tools, you may want to securely attach it to its brackets. To do this,
you can insert two No. 8/M4 screws (not included) into the holes shown in the illustration below. Note that older
pen trays don’t have this feature.

Maintaining Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System

In This Chapter
This chapter includes methods to prevent damage to, and to properly clean your SMART Board 600i2 interactive
whiteboard system. Follow the additional instructions and recommendations see your Installation and User’s
Guide (document 1414) to properly maintain your interactive whiteboard
• Preventing Damage to Your Interactive Whiteboard
• Cleaning the Interactive Whiteboard
• Cleaning the Pen Tray
• Cleaning the Unifi 45 Projector
• Preparing to Replace the Projector Lamp

Preventing Damage to Your Interactive Whiteboard

Although the SMART Board 600 series interactive whiteboard surface is very durable, take these precautions to
prevent damage to the interactive screen and to other components.
• Don’t use sharp or pointed objects, such as ballpoint pens or pointers, as writing tools.
• Never use abrasive erasers or harsh chemicals when cleaning.
• Never leave adhesive tape on the writing surface for extended periods. Lifting the tape may remove the
coating that provides the interactive whiteboard’s dry-erase capability.
• Avoid setting up and using your interactive whiteboard in an area with excessive levels of dust, humidity
or smoke.

Cleaning Your Interactive Whiteboard

For additional cleaning instructions, refer to your 600 series Installation and User’s Guide (document 1414). With
proper care, your SMART Board interactive whiteboard will provide years of trouble-free service. Follow these
tips to keep the screen surface clean:
NOTE: Before you clean your 600 series interactive whiteboard, shut down the computer or unplug the USB
cable connecting your interactive whiteboard to the computer. Otherwise, you may inadvertently activate
applications or scramble an attached computer’s desktop icons when you clean the screen.

• Don’t use low-odor dry-erase markers such as EXPO2®, because the ink can be very difficult to remove.
Use only in well-ventilated areas.
• Erase dry-erase ink as soon as possible after use. The longer dry-erase ink is on the surface, the more
difficult it is to remove.
• Remove excess dry-erase dust with a damp lint-free cloth before using a cleaner.
• If erasing doesn’t completely remove dry-erase ink, clean the writing surface with a household glass cleaner
(such as Windex®) daily, weekly or as required.
• Use dry-erase marker cleaner if ink remains after erasing.

99-00850-21 B0 Maintaining Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 31

 • Don’t allow glass cleaner to flow into the crack between the lower frame and the writing surface, or into the
pen tray recesses.
• Use isopropyl alcohol for stubborn stains and ghosting.

To remove marks made with a permanent marker, use a cleaner such as the Sanford EXPO Dry Erase Board
Doctor. Write directly over the permanent ink stain with the product, allow the solution to dry completely and then
wipe clean.

You can also use a high-odor dry-erase marker to remove marks from a permanent marker because dry-erase
ink contains solvents that can remove permanent ink. Cover the permanent ink with the dry-erase ink and wipe
with a lint-free cloth while the ink is still wet. If any trace of the ink remains, spray a lint-free cloth with a glass or
whiteboard cleaner and wipe the area clean.

TIP
When removing permanent marker ink, don’t use low-odor or non-scented dry-erase markers.
They don’t contain the appropriate solvents.

Cleaning the Pen Tray

If the infrared sensors in the bottom of the pen tray’s recesses are obstructed, the sensors can’t reliably detect
when a pen or the eraser is removed or replaced. The recessed LED may remain lit or won’t light, and the lifted
tool won’t work.

Infrared Sensors

To clean a sensor, moisten a cotton swab with a household glass cleaner, such as Windex, and carefully clean

 Cleaning the Unifi 45 Projector

WARNING
Cleaning a arm-mounted projector may result in a fall and injury.

CAUTION Before you clean the Unifi 45 projector, turn off the power button switch on the projector, not the
ECP, and allow bulb to cool. Depressing the ECP button at this time would cause the projector
to start back up.

Wipe the exterior of the projector using a lint-free cloth.

Avoid touching the mirror located on the end of the projector boom. If necessary, use liquids or commercial
solvents (such as glass cleaners) to clean the mirror, but do not spray them directly on the system. Spraying the
system or the mirror might spread a chemical mist on some of the projector’s components and lamp, resulting in
damage and poor image quality. Spray the liquid or commercial solvent onto a soft lint-free cloth to clean
the mirror.
Clean the projector lens with a commercially available blower or lens cleaner. Take care not to scratch the lens.

CAUTION Do not allow liquids or commercial solvents of any kind to flow into the projector base or head.
Do not use spray cleaners or solvents near any part of the projector, as it may damage or stain
the unit.

Preparing to Replace the Projector Lamp

If a lamp fails or if a replacement message appears on the screen of the Unifi 45 projector, a qualified person can
replace the projector lamp. Don’t access the service panel without a replacement lamp and instructions
in hand.

WARNING • If the projector is mounted on the boom, the manufacturer recommends contacting your
authorized SMART reseller when the lamp must be exchanged.
• Uncovering the lamp while the projector is mounted on an arm might lead to a product
damage or personal injury from falling pieces of glass if the lamp is broken.
• Remove the projector from the arm before servicing the lamp.
• Complete the procedure described in this document instead of the instructions included in
your replacement lamp box.
• Only qualified personnel should replace the projector lamp. Replacing the lamp in a
boom-mounted projector might result in a fall and injury.
• If you continue to use the projector after the replacement message appears, the lamp might
shatter or burst, scattering glass throughout the projector head.
• If the lamp has shattered or burst, do not touch the glass fragments because they might
cause injury. Leave and then ventilate the area where the lamp shattered or burst. Wash
your hands thoroughly if you have come into contact with lamp debris. Thoroughly clean the
area around the projector, and discard any edible items placed in that area because they
may be contaminated.

99-00850-21 B0 Maintaining Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 33

You must configure your computer’s serial communication program or your room control system’s serial
communication settings with the following values:
Criteria Input Value

Data Rate 19,200 bps

Data Bits 8

Parity None

Stop Bits 1

Flow Control None

NOTE: Type commands in ASCII format. Terminate all commands and responses with a carriage return.

To configure your serial interface

WARNING
Do not connect your serial cable directly to the projector’s RS-232 serial interface. The ECP’s
RS-232 serial interface is the only recommended connection point.

1. Connect your computer to the ECP serial connector using a straight-through DB9M to DB9F cable.
2. On your computer, start your serial communications program or terminal emulation program.
3. Configure your serial communication parameters by following your program’s instructions.
4. Configure your serial interface settings using the values in the table in the previous section, and then
press ENTER.
An “Invalid command, ? for help” message appears, and the > character appears as a command prompt on
the following line.
NOTE: If no message appears or an error message appears, your serial interface configuration isn’t correct.
Return to step 3, and then reset your serial interface settings.
5. Type commands to configure your settings.

 NOTES
• To see a list of available commands, type ? and then press ENTER.
• When you’re using a terminal emulation program, turn on your program’s local echo setting if you want to
see characters as you type them.

Timing and Command Processing

The Unifi 45 projector responds to commands only at certain power levels and times. There are four projector
power states:

• Idle (standby)
• Powering (startup)
• On (operating)
• Cooling (standby)
The embedded firmware program coordinates command sequencing and is capable of buffering up to 127
commands. In each power state, the buffer accepts valid commands until the program can process them.
Power State Commands Accepted

Idle The buffer accepts all valid commands

The system processes the get fwver, get bootver,
get input, get powerstate and on commands
Powering • The buffer accepts all valid commands
• The program doesn’t process commands
On • The buffer accepts all valid commands
• The program processes all valid commands
Cooling • The buffer accepts all valid commands
• The program doesn’t process commands

NOTES
• In the On state, a five second delay occurs after every input source change. The program doesn’t process
commands during this delay.
• In the On state, if the current input source doesn’t send a signal, a black screen with the SMART
Technologies logo—a “Command Failed” message appears when you type contrast and brightness
commands.

Command Inventory
The Unifi 45 projector responds to the commands in the tables on the following pages.

NOTES

• Commands aren’t case sensitive.

• Type commands exactly as they appear in the left column of the tables, except for number variables, which
are represented by ××, and positive/negative variables, which are represented by ±.

99-00850-21 B0 Remote Management of Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 49

 • Press ENTER after typing each command.

CAUTION • Cycling power to the projector repeatedly can lock or damage the interactive whiteboard
system. Allow at least 15 minutes for cooling before sending the ON command after turning
off the system.
• Check your entries carefully before entering your commands.

IMPORTANT
The system buffer can delay response times. Response times vary.

After the projector executes a command, it generates a response. There are two ways to program the command
sequence to turn on the system, wait for the powering cycle to finish and select an input source:

• Allow the ECP to sequence the commands

• Control the sequence programmatically
